Chapter 160 That's Your Sister-in-Law
Huo Xiuyuan regretted his actions when he arrived, thinking he had practically kicked Xia Ningxi out.
The Huo family has wronged Xia Ningxi.
Huo Xiuyuan himself was well aware of this.
But back then, Huo Nanxiao insisted on letting Xia Wanwan into the family, and there was nothing they could do about it.
Later, Xia Ningxi passed away, and Huo Xiuyuan felt very guilty.
Now that Xia Ningxi is standing safely in front of Huo Xiuyuan, as an elder, Huo Xiuyuan feels an indescribable sense of guilt and naturally will not target Xia Ningxi anymore.
He welcomed Xia Ningxi back, and Huo Xiuyuan had no objection if she wanted to take care of Huo Yuan.
Xia Ningxi said, "Mr. Huo, I have already divorced Mr. Huo. I am just A Yuan's private doctor and have nothing to do with the Huo family anymore."
Huo Xiuyuan's face darkened. He knew that Xia Ningxi still held a grudge about what happened back then. Not knowing how to explain, Huo Xiuyuan could only glare fiercely at Huo Nanxiao.
Xia Xingxing held Huo Xiuyuan's hand and said, "Grandpa, I like Dr. Xia. Can she stay with me?"
“Yes, absolutely. You can have her stay with you all the time, Grandpa won’t have any objections.” Huo Xiuyuan quickly agreed.
Xia Xingxing happily hugged Huo Xiuyuan: "Grandpa is the best. I like Grandpa the most."
Huo Xiuyuan felt extremely guilty when he realized that his purpose in coming was to drive Xia Ningxi away from the child. After chatting with Xia Ningxi for a few minutes, he hurriedly left.
He had no face to stay here any longer, because what the Huo family had done back then was indeed a bit too much.
Huo Jinchuan followed closely behind and got into Huo Xiuyuan's car.
"Father doesn't plan to let Xixi leave Lanyuan?" Huo Jinchuan asked, somewhat displeased.
Huo Xiuyuan said angrily, "That's your sister-in-law."
“My brother has already divorced Xixi,” Huo Jinchuan replied.
Huo Xiuyuan was furious: "Who said they're divorced? Even if they are, she's still your sister-in-law! I'm asking you, did you already know about this? I came here today looking so menacing, thank goodness I didn't say anything nasty, otherwise where would the Huo family's face be!"
Huo Xiuyuan was very angry.
He was already prepared to teach this mistress a lesson when he arrived, but who knew that the other party would actually be Xia Ningxi!
Even now, Huo Xiuyuan's legs are still a little weak.
Who would have thought that Xia Ningxi, who supposedly died on the operating table back then, was still alive!
If Huo Xiuyuan knew that the person he was recently rumored to be having an affair with Huo Nanxiao was Xia Ningxi, he would never have bothered to cause trouble for Xia Ningxi.
He's a man who cares about his reputation!
The Huo family owes Xia Ningxi a great deal. Even if Xia Ningxi only asks to stay by Huo Yuan's side and take care of him, Huo Xiuyuan would have no reason to refuse if Xia Ningxi proposed to become the eldest young mistress of the Huo family.
Upon closer examination, the problem lies entirely with Huo Nanxiao.
Huo Nanxiao didn't want anyone to threaten Xia Wanwan's position, but he also wanted Huo Yuan to have his biological mother's company, so he kept it a secret from the Huo family and didn't let them know that Xia Ningxi had returned.
Huo Xiuyuan cursed Huo Jinchuan: "You're a bastard too, why didn't you tell me you knew about this all along?"
"Xixi has no relation to my older brother." Huo Jinchuan was very stubborn and insisted on this statement.
Huo Xiuyuan was so angry he wanted to hit him. "I'm warning you, that's your sister-in-law. You better behave yourself, or I'll deal with you too."
And so, Huo Xiuyuan stormed back to the Huo family's old residence in a rage.
Qu Huilan waited at home for Huo Xiuyuan to return.
Seeing him get out of the car, Qu Huilan quickly walked over and asked, "How did it go? Is it all sorted out?"
"Stop talking." Huo Xiuyuan was at his wit's end.
Qu Huilan frowned and said, "Nan Xiao is unwilling? Or is that Dr. Xia too cunning for you to handle? If that's the case, I'll deal with her."
"Don't go." Huo Xiuyuan hurriedly pulled Qu Huilan back.
Qu Huilan asked, "Why?"
Huo Xiuyuan asked, "Do you know who treated A Yuan?"
"Isn't he just a doctor from the Imperial City Central Hospital?"
Huo Xiuyuan: "She is Xia Ningxi!"
Qu Huilan nearly lost her footing!
"Xia Ningxi? Isn't she already dead?"
Huo Xiuyuan said, "I had the same expression when I saw her just now! Luckily, I didn't say anything too harsh. If she had heard that, where would we, the Huo family, have put our faces?"
"No, are you sure it's Xia Ningxi? She's been dead for so many years." Qu Huilan suppressed her shock and asked again.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "I'm not blind, she must be right."
"What should we do now? Ning Xi will be furious if she finds out that Huo Yuanji is registered under Xia Wanwan's name," Qu Huilan said worriedly.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "Our Huo family owes her too much. Now she's even imprisoned. I'll have someone deal with the media to prevent Ning Xi from getting into any unnecessary trouble."
“Okay, I’ll go see her when I have time,” Qu Huilan said.
In just one morning, Huo Xiuyuan had completely suppressed Huo Nanxiao's scandal.
Xia Luoluo was originally looking forward to seeing Xia Ningxi make a fool of herself, but when she woke up, all the news that was bad for Xia Ningxi had been blocked, which shocked Xia Luoluo.
She hurriedly called Zhang Lina and asked, "Nana, what happened? Didn't you say these scandals would continue to escalate?"
Zhang Lina said, "The Huo family patriarch has already stepped in and suppressed the matter."
"Huo Xiuyuan? He actually came out in person?" Xia Luoluo was very shocked.
Zhang Lina said, "That's right, he made a move. If I make any further moves, he will become suspicious of us, so I dare not act rashly."
Xia Luoluo wondered, "Why is Huo Xiuyuan trying to suppress this matter? Does he recognize Xia Ningxi?"
"I don't know, but your sister is now the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo family. As Huo Shao's father, he should be on your sister's side, right?" Zhang Lina asked.
Xia Luoluo wasn't sure.
Xia Wanwan made no contribution to the Huo family, while Xia Ningxi was the one who truly carried on the Huo family line. In terms of merit, Xia Wanwan couldn't even compare to a single finger of Xia Ningxi.
Xia Wanwan is only able to have a name now thanks to Xia Ningxi. If Xia Ningxi hadn't given birth to a son for Huo Nanxiao, how could the Huo family elders have allowed Xia Wanwan to enter the family?
Now that Xia Ningxi's scandal has been completely suppressed, Xia Luoluo is very worried. She doesn't know if Huo Xiuyuan wants to completely blacklist Xia Ningxi and get rid of her, or if he has other ideas.
Because of this incident, Xia Luoluo was nervous all day. She felt that she could not sit idly by and decided to go to the Huo family's old house to find out what the two elders thought. Who knew that she would run right into their line of fire? They were just worrying about how to properly deal with Xia Wanwan, and Xia Luoluo's arrival gave them the perfect opportunity.
